Braided Trans Lines
After 3 trans lines in a year and the last one lasting 1500miles before flare has cracked and leaking once more i need something different .
I got a hydrolic line made over the weekend at my local carquest for $43 to get me on the road again. It ended up being about 4in too long but I guess it will work for the time being. With the help of joefarmer I have a list of JEGS parts for converson but a few more questions.
Parts: 4 Red/Black straight flow hose end -08AN #555-111002
2 Red/Black 90* Max flow Swivel hose end -08AN #555-11022
2 -08AN Male to 1/2' tube #555-110553
2 Straight Flare Fitting male thread Black 1/4" to -8AN Flare #555-110105
1 Pro Flo 200 series Braided Hose -8An 15' length 555-100923
Qustion 1. Are these fittings the same for my 47-RH
2. Is there any way to add a check valve so I dont loose pressure, the hydrolic line doesn't have one and I can't tell a difference.
3. I have a resistor in my temp sensor sence i did away with the fitting for it, is this going to cause a problem.
4. anyone else done this have pictures/tips
Sorry for being long just trying to get a reliable system us under this goat, Thanks for the input

It sounds like you have it all under control , I have no check valve , and i did not see one anywhere in the old steel lines when i took them off and threw them out, I have no problems at all. Yes the fittings should all be identicle. I too have a resistor , but if your not running a trans temp gauge , you should hook the stock sender back up so at least you know if the tranny is overheating, it can be done but putting a T somewhere in the hot line.
There are a few pictures in my gallery if you want to take a look at my setup.
